Felt good, after the first 500 I began seeing the previous wave's swim caps. Was consistant and smooth.

My run cost me. I walked appoximatelly 8 min costing me a good 4 min. Even with that my place would not have changed. I do not feel my swim or bike cost me. I Just need to lace up the running shoes more.
What would you do differently?:

Better run prep starting with run, run, and run some more...
Post race
Warm down:

water, light stretching, and waling off the rest of it.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

my gut, still need to loose 10-15 lb

Event comments:

As usual the swag is ok (shirt, socks, and advertisment), the event itself is great except I am not a fan of swimming in a boat harbor (I know no one purges the lav...), Post activities seemed to be week. Overall I was at the border of MOP and BOP and by the time I was ready for a mussel milk they were already shutting down.
